It is stated that the lack of trust stems from many reasons. In this context, the subject of this study is to identify the level of trust in judiciary in Turkey. The study examines the trust in judiciary from the perspective of the citizens and also tries to measure their perceptions and attitudes on this subject. For the purposes of the Study, a survey is preferred to measure the Turkish citizens’ level of trust in judiciary and the main factors affecting the trust. The survey is conducted through face to face interviews with 2000 participants in 26 cities, 83 districts and 382 neighborhood units in Turkey from February 23 to March 23 in 2015.
